Hi JennC,
Thank you.
Yes i can get to all folders, and i am accessing by admin account,but the links are not in any of the sub folders they are in the home folder. I can use the links to dowload programs copy the link and see if there are any other versions of it, but when i highlight it the delete option is not there even the X delete icon does not light up and when i right click it all i get is the 3 options download copy version!

May 05, 2016If you're trying to manually delete them from the GUI of the ReadyNAS, do a right click on the file.

If you're trying to automatically delete them once the download is complete, you need to look into the option of Sickrage or your torrent app.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
That's the problem though, I right click and the only options i get are as i stated "Download...Copy and Version" I have tried every type of delete options i know but nothing seems to work.

You might be having problems because you put the files in home in the first place. /data/home is a special folder - it is intended to hold user "private" home shares, and not for general use as a share. I don't use sickrage, but I think you should configure a sickrage share that it can use (and stop using home).
Try accessing the NAS from a PC (using file explorer) using NAS admin credentials. That will let you see the home folder, and you might be able to delete the files from there.
